Need Hp Bling clamp for Samco hose

Looking for high performance hose clamps to compliment the blue Samco's I'll be installing. Maybe a constant tension, polished SS or ??? Something other than the run of the mill, radiator clamps. Any ideas? Someone mentioned a K&N allen screw type ,but I can't find any info.

I'll have to search, but I remember from my 1.8T days that there's a company that makes some good marine grade SS clamps. I think the name was Mikalor??

Edit: They're British. You can find more info here: http://www.powerengineering.co.uk/mikalor/

Hi, Thanks for the response. The clamps look to be very wide, would we have room for them? The website has very poor photos of the clamps.

ABA Clamps are polishable. All SS. Standard screw type with raised threads, not holes so hoses don't ooze through them. Clamp edges are rolled as not to cut into hose. Redoing my car with them as we do a build.

JPMM, we carry stainless steel T-bolt clamps. Possibly overkill, but they look good and are super-strong.
